Backing away from NATO, South Korea, the Middle East, and the South Pacific.

If diplomacy leads to less war and death all over the globe then I welcome it.

Putin is calling for a new world order where the US and the EU lose influence and cedes their position and power to Russia and China and other totalitarian regimes.
If Trump and the Republicans abandons Ukraine it sends a powerful message to the rest of the world that the US can’t be trusted and alliances with the US are not necessarily of benefit any longer. Originally Posted by txdot-guy

Sure, from the Romans to the Spanish, French, British and to us now, empires went bankrupt. War is expensive. Ultimately we're not as powerful as we were in 1950 relative to the rest of the world.Heck, even Henry Kissinger advocated for diplomacy with Russia
We can't afford to wage war in Ukraine, Middle East and on China's doorstep all at the same time, and even if we do in any single of these, it poses danger of global annihilation.
Europe is broke and stagnant. So the fighting would be done by us.
The Global South isn't sympathetic to the West right now. We haven't been cultivating relationships as well as we could have, e.g. Brazil where Bolsonaro was a huge US ally and we helped Lula get back to power, or the IMF system that frankly impoverished foreign masses while enriching their elites. We're associated with it.
So dialogue with one's opponents makes sense. Even the architect of our Cold War strategy George Kennan advocated towards dialogue and cooperation after the Cold War ended.
Trump himself put sanctions on Russia and held back Nordstream which was clearly of great economic interest to Russia. He was not their friend. Originally Posted by TravelingHere
